As for where to get the credentials, I don't know that you can. If you can access virsh/virt-manager, etc, without readonly access, you end up with split brain issues since you have multiple things that can issue management commands.

Re: [Users] virsh/virt-manager access on nodes.
1) For read only access, you can try virsh -c qemu:///system -r 2)For read write access you can try virsh -c qemu:system, then input authentication name: vdsm@rhevh password: shibboleth On 2012-5-23 23:56, Rahul Upadhyaya wrote: Hi Folks, I was trying to use virt-manager on one of the hosts being managed by the ovirt-manager.
